I'm using what gentoo calls dosemu-1.4.1_pre20091009 . And all other programs seem to work, but the one that needs to invoke dos4g (which is the main program, by the way) does not. Right now this machine is working with a 32-bits 1.4.0.0 version of dosemu, but the 32 bits version has 2 Gb max filesize which we will meet soon and it's gone with the 64 bits version. I tried the 64-bits 1.4.0.0 version but it seems to have problems with file locking. -----Mensaje original----- De: solarflow99 [mailto:solarflow99@xxxxxxxxx] Enviado el: jueves, 27 de enero de 2011 15:18 Para: Xavier Tarifa CC: linux-msdos@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Asunto: Re: Weirdest thing ever what version of dosemu? do other dos programs work ok? I haven't tried dos4g myself, maybe others on here can comment if it works for them.

I tested that it could run our programs without problems on a test server running CentOS 5.4. Everything worked fine, so I tried to put it in our production server, running a 64-bits fedora 10. It didn't work. Dosemu hangs when it tries to execute dos4g.exe (it seems that it's a memory extender).

And that's the thing, dosemu works as it should when I run it through strace, but hangs when it should execute dos4g if I run it "normally". The uids/gids are the same, I've compared the memory maps and they are exactly the same and I don't know what else to compare. Anyone has any idea of why it is doing this, and how to make it work without strace? I know that the obvious thing would be installing the CentOS that's proved to work, but this server is on the other side of the country and I don't have physical access to it. Any ideas are welcomed. > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" > in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo > info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
